C                           G 
Up on Main St, they built a highway 
            Am                   F 
Changed its name to Johnson Boulevard 
      C                G 
Up on Thursday down on Friday 
          Am                    F  
People ask me why are things so hard 
           C    
Times been hard though 
     G               Am 
From Laredo to San Jacinto 
          F     G        C     G 
And it?s a long way back home 

           C                G  
There?s an old train in a stock yard 
           Am                       F 
It?s like a graveyard of things come and gone 
        C               G 
And the wind moves on a gravestone 
          Am 
Where the names gone 
              F 
And everybody knows 
           C 
Times been hard though 
   G               Am 
In Laredo to San Jacinto 
          F    G        C      Am 
And it?s a long way back home 

    F             C              Am 
Sometimes you?re standing still 
                  F         C 
And the wind just beats you down  
        Am            G 
Oh and sometimes it?s just so hard  
   D                                     F      G 
to keep your two feet right there on the ground

        C 
Mother?s faithful 
            G 
She goes to church still 
         Am     
Prays on Sunday 
            F 
And Mondays too 
        C 
Father's somewhere 
       G    
In the back field 
             Am 
Thinking out loud 
                        F 
That this ain'?t nothing new 
           C 
Times been hard though 
     G               Am 
From Laredo to San Jacinto 
            F       G       Am               
So why don?t we just go back home 
   
         F       G       F      C G F  Repeat 3x End on the C 
Why don?t we just go back home
